Yellow Corn

It is also used in non-food applications such as packing materials and biodegradable plastics and as a substrate for the cultivation of fungi and bacteria in laboratory settings. It can be ground into cornmeal or corn flour and used to make various dishes, animal feed, snacks, ethanol production, industrial uses, corn flour, corn oil, corn syrup, and sweeteners.

Dried yellow corn, also known as field corn or dent corn, is a common variety of corn that has been dried to reduce its moisture content for storage and future use. It is a rich source of carbohydrates, dietary fibre, and essential minerals, as well as a moderate source of protein, and it contains small amounts of fat. It has a long shelf life when stored properly and can be processed into various forms, such as corn flakes, cornflour, corn oil, or used for ethanol production. Some varieties of dried yellow corn may be genetically modified (GM) to exhibit specific traits, such as resistance to pests or herbicides. Worldwide production of dried yellow corn is one of the most widely grown and consumed crops globally, with major producers in the United States, Brazil, Argentina, China, and Ukraine. It can also be used in human food products, particularly after further processing.
